Nice motor, very clean cut.

If it were me;
-Lower on Eibachs
-Tint rear 3
-Spray allows gun mental grey/anthracite
-black wing mirror covers
-abarth headlights

-BOOM!

Would really set this off.

It does look really clean in the photos, shame to spoil it, keep it standard.

Eibachs don't go low enough for me lol anthracite alloys sound good, wing mirrors too. Abarth headlights will be done eventually as will the tints.

What are the options for car audio? Can amps be installed relatively easy with the factory radio?

Lovely car mate not keen on leather interiors though my dad had a ford :devil: yes I said ford on a fiat forum :bang: (Anyway) and it used to have leater seats in the winter they were freezing cold and in the summer they were unbearably hot but they do look

Picking up my new car on Monday. 07 plate red Mjet with 60k on the clock and full leather interior.

Here are the dealer photos

I have a few plans for it but its just the usual:
Lower on springs/coil overs
Tinted back 3
Might respray the alloys
Debadged grill
Not sure on vinyl behind the reg plate, seems too common on here!

Not sure what else can be done??

Thats a lovely Grande mate, i love the interior !, Keep us updated on the work

Looks good!

Am I right in thinking this is only a 4 seater? Can't see the seatbelt for a fifth person in the back :s

Yes, for some reason having the leather meant loosing a seat and belt.

As it was nice weather I thought I'd give him a quick wash, wasn't particularly dirty to begin with just dusty.

Snowfoam!

Lots and lots of swirling!

What would be a decent polish to reduce this swirling by hand? (no access to a rotary or DA polisher)

Quick on of the sunset.

Not sure if you can see but there's a mk2 and another GP in the background

You will lose quality with the standard head unit. get hold of another, any other for that matter.

What are you planning to use the amp for, just a subwoofer or the front/rear speakers also?

wellsy87 · May 8, 2013

I like the oem look though lol amp would be for sub and comps up front eventually

Get some AUTOGLYM Super Resin polish and AUTOGLYM extra gloss protection, if done well swirling should look a lot better

I actually found an unopened bottle of SRP in my boot yesterday

need to get some wax though.

Decided to remove the vinyl on the doors as they weren't in the best condition.

Need to get a full machine polish done! Not keen on it like this but it's better than what it was.

wellsy87 · Jan 18, 2014

So after about 7 months of my car being off the road its back on it again! 2 new caliper seals and a battery recharge and he flew through the MOT. Next on the agenda is to revinyl the doors and vinyl behind the license plate.

wellsy87 · Jan 19, 2014

Im wanting to do something different with this. Everyone has done the red and black thing so im thinking red and white? White alloys look good on red cars but im undecided on one thing...

Im toying with the idea of putting white vinyl behind the reg plate, spraying the grills white but putting a black outline round it all.

Thoughts?
